- British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said on Thursday he "obviously" had concerns about Russian President Vladimir Putin being on U.S. President Donald Trump's proposed "Board of Peace."

Trump said on Wednesday Putin had accepted his invitation to join the initiative but the Russian leader said the invitation was only under consideration.

"I obviously have concerns about Putin being on a Board of Peace," Starmer said in an interview with Channel 4 News. "He is waging war on a European country. They're raining down bombs on Ukraine."

"We mustn't let the events of the last week or so deflect from the focus. We need to work with the Americans. It's going to be allies and others to defend and support Ukraine in a conflict which is not of their making."
